How noisy is it mate? Do you need to control your water temps with chiller/heater? And do you bother with an Airstone?

Not noisey at all. The only time it makes a noise is when it's feeding time, once or twice day depending on what you set it at. I don't use a air stone but I'm thinking of putting one in the bottom of each pot now I'm using bigger pots as more water sits in them and they don't sit on a slant. No heater or chiller needed either.

Looking lovely smokey, mind if I sit my fat ass in the corner [emoji2]

Fill your boots, go for it pal [emoji23]

You might want to re-think the air stones in each pot smokey because the systems empty most of the time your air pump would only be sat in a tiny amount of water(that could make a lot of "vibration" noise)

 

There is a way around it tho if your any good with electic's...

 

You take the control timer apart and find the "feed" pump wires,then wire your air pump to them..That way the airstones come on when you start the feed

 

Looking very nice in there as well mate

Have you ran the bigger pots before mate? I totally agree in what your saying if I was using the small pots but these bigger ones hold a lot more water. Check this pic out

There about 600mm tall pal.

I'm flooding them once a day.

I might up the floods tho do regulate the Meduim better

[2scoops]

Oh they massive and have grown fast in that system. get us some pics up of your super cropping session m8. The flood and drain was summink i olooked at a long time ago and it never got any further than that really. Never tried understanding it either, but it seems straight forward enough, i like it mukka, but a watering can does job for 2 or 3 plants, maybe if i grew more i`d invest in summink like this one day. Cheers m8.

Yeah man they are coming on really fast. The system is really a doddle fuck all to do really. There's nothing to understand once you understand EC and PH. I'll take some pics later of my super cropping

[Smokey]
